TECHNICAL BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
U.S. patent No. 4,452,808 discloses 4-aminoalkyl indol-2-one derivatives having a selective D2 receptor activity. These compounds can be used for the treatment of hypertension. One of the compounds provided by said patent, namely 4-[2-(di-N- propylamino)ethyl]-2(3H)-indolone, is used for the clinical treatment of Parkinson disease. European patent No. 281,309 provides indol-2-one derivatives carrying an arylpiperazinyl-alkyl substituent in position 5, which can be applied for the treatment of psychotic conditions. One of the compounds described in said patent, namely 5-[2-[4-(l,2- benzisothiazol-3-yl)-l-piperazinyl]-ethyl]-6-chloro-l,3-dihydro- 2H-indol-2-one, exerts its activity by interaction with D2, 5-HT]A and 5-HT2 receptors and is used in the clinical treatment as an antipsychotic agent.
European patent No. 376,607 discloses indol-2-one derivatives substituted in position 3 by an alkylpiperazinyl-aryl group, which exert their activity on 5-HTιA receptor and are useful for the treatment of central nervous disorders.
In the international patent application WO 98/008816 indol-2- one derivatives containing a substituted alkyl-piperazinyl, substituted alkyl-piperidinyl or alkyl-cyclohexyl group in position 3 are disclosed. These compounds possess psychotrophic activity. Said patent specification is completely silent in mentioning anything about the activity profile of the said compounds, and as a field of application only the treatment of depression and anxiety are mentioned. The acceleration of technical-social development in the twentieth century constitutes a permanent compulsion of adaptation for humans, which, in adverse cases, may lead to the occurrence of adaptation disorders. Adaptation disorders constitute an important risk factor in the development of diseases of mental or psycho-somatic origin, such as anxiolytic syndrome, stress disorder, depression, schizophrenia, disorders of the sense organs, gastrointestinal diseases, cardiovascular diseases and disorders of the secretory organs.
For the treatment of the above clinical patterns most widespreadly pharmaceuticals exerting their activity on the benzodiazepine system (e.g. diazepam) or on central 5-HTιA receptors (e.g. buspiron, ziprasidon) have been applied. In case of psychosomatic diseases anxiolytic therapy is often complemented by the administration of pharmaceuticals possessing antihypertensive (acting on α.] or α2 receptors), or antiulcerative (Hi -receptor antagonist) activity.
Anxiolytics of benzodiazepine type are accompanied, however, by several unpleasant side-effects. They have a strong sedative activity, cause decline of the power of concentration and memory and possess muscle relaxant effect. Said side-effects influence the quality of life of the patients in an adverse manner and thus restrict the scope of application of such pharmaceuticals.
Beside the stress occurring during adaptation to the environment another great problem of modern society is the rapid ageing of population. Owing to the results of modern medical science life expectancy has increased, and the diseases occurring due to ageing or developing in the declining years, particularly the number of mental diseases has grown in leaps and bounds. The solution of the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementias and senile dementia has become a social problem.
As a result of the enumerated processes there is a strong need for new and efficient pharmaceuticals ensuring a more effective treatment of these diseases than those available for the time being.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The object of the present invention is to develop pharmaceutical ingredients having more favourable activity profile than those applied for the time being, which are devoid of the above- specified drawbacks and undesired side-effects and which, at the same time, can be used for the treatment and prophylaxis of disorders of the central nervous and cardiovascular system. The invention is based on the surprising recognition that the substituted indol-2-one derivatives of the general Formula (I) - in contrast to the prior art compounds of similar structure - show a considerable binding to both 5-HT and a.\ receptors. Accordingly, it can be expected that their applicability will encompass the treatment of both central nervous and cardiovascular disorders.

The invention is based on the surprising recognition that the 3- alkyl-indol-2-one derivatives of the general Formula (I) - in contrast to the prior art compounds of similar structure - show a considerable binding to both 5-HT7, and ci] receptors.
For the determination of 5-HT receptor affinity human cloned receptors were used. The receptor affinities were determined from isolated frontal cortex preparation of male Wistar rats weighing 120-200 g. The protein contents of membrane preparations were determined by the method of Lowry (1951).
In the course of 5-HT7 and αi receptor binding studies the ligands were 3H-lizergic acid diethylamide (LSD) (1.0 nM) and 3H- prazosine (0.3 nM). Clozapine (25 μM) and prazosine (1 μM) were used for the measurement of non-specific bindings. The αi receptor binding studies were carried out according to the methods of Reader, and Greengrass (Reader, T.A., Briere, R., Grondin, L.: J. Neural Transm. 68, p. 79 (1987); Greengrass, P., Brenner, R.: Eur. J. Pharmacol. 55, p. 323 (1979) ).
IC50 is the concentration where the difference between the whole binding and non-specific binding is 50%. The compounds with an IC50 value smaller than 100 nmol were considered effective in this test. The results of the experiments are presented in Tables 2 and 3.
Table 1 5-HT7 receptor binding
Table 2 αi receptor binding
As it can be seen from the data shown in Tables 1 and 2, the compounds according to the invention considerably bind to the 5-HT7 and αi receptors.
On the basis of the above experiments it can be established that the compounds according to the invention possess a valuable therapeutic profile rendering them suitable for the treatment or prophylaxis of mental and cardiovascular diseases, especially those specified above.

The melt of the secondary amine (12 mmoles) is warmed to 120 °C under slow stirring, and the mesyl compound (12 mmoles) and sodium carbonate (1.36 g; 12 mmoles) are added to it at the same temperature. The mixture is allowed to react for 1 hour, the melt is allowed to cool, ethyl acetate and water are added to it and the phases are separated. The organic phase is evaporated, the residual oil is subjected to chromatography on a short column using ethyl acetate as eluent. As main products the desired compounds are obtained.
Processing method 1 : If the product purified by column chromatography gets crystalline upon rubbing with diethyl ether, it is filtered off and recrystallized from a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate. The desired compounds are obtained in form of white crystals. Processing method 2: If the basic product does not get crystalline upon the addition of diethyl ether, it is dissolved in 200 ml of ether, the slight amount of floating precipitate is filtered off and to the pure solution the calculated amount (1 molar equivalent) of hydrogen chloride dissolved in ether diluted with 50 ml of diethyl ether is dropped under vigorous stirring. The separated white salt is filtered off, washed with ether and hexane and dried in a vacuum pistol at room temperature for 3 hours. Processing method 3: If the basic product does not get crystalline upon the addition of diethyl ether and does not provide a well- filterable salt with hydrogen chloride, it is dissolved in 100 ml of hot ethyl acetate, and a solution of 1 molar equivalent of oxalic acid dihydrate in 30 ml of hot ethyl acetate is dropped to it within 10 minutes, under stirring. The white oxalate salt gets separated upon cooling. It is filtered off at room temperature, washed with ethyl acetate and hexane and dried.
